The CIA is also in the midst of this battle, and is claiming that they are the exclusive launchers of attacks against computers that aren’t in specific warzones and that the Cyber Command is stepping on their toes in claiming this same authority.

This has inevitably sparked calls to dramatically increase government (and military) control over the Internet and concerns about privacy as the military seems determined to start launching attacks on private networks en masse and the only public objection is that it’s the CIA’s job to do that.

I'm qualified in this type of stuff also. But SO are all my friends in Russia who would love nothing better than to crack the H out of the CIA. Little buddies in China are geniuses at this stuff so the day that these retards feel like starting a global cyber war I hope they are all set to have their ass handed to them on a platter !
